Belgium begins proceedings on Monday in its largest ever trial to determine whether 10 men played a part in the Islamist suicide bombings in Brussels in 2016 that killed 32 people and injured over 300.

Six of the Brussels accused were sentenced to jail in June, but the Belgian trial will be different in that it will be settled by a jury not judges.
